Comment on What's your favourite era for video games?

The present. I can use emulation to play all my old favorites, often for free, and there’s never been such a rich plethora of indie and studio games available.

If you haven’t played Terranigma, you should do that. It’s on the level of Chrono Trigger in how good it is.

I did play that on emulator a decade or so ago. It’s part of the same series as Illusion of Gaia, right? I don’t really remember Terranigma that well, maybe it’s time for a replay.

Great choices! Some classics there for sure

Adding a separate comment to add, if you’ve never played it, Super Mario X was a very fun, apparently not-entirely-legal fangame made my Redigit (who went on to create Terraria). He took it down at Nintendo’s demand, but you can still find a copy.

I’ll look into it, thanks for the info
